Re: Steam crashing on launch

Hello. Did you install steam via flatpak or the multilib repo?

Re: Steam crashing on launch

Do you also experience the problem when using the 'steam-native' command? You should probably share the content of the .dmp files listed in the posted output.

I take it you've gone through this page?
